The "aha" moment sometimes comes too late sadly. But I'd prefer having it than leaving this Earth without that wisdom.

Although sometimes people learn it rationally there's still a part missing. They haven't processed it emotionally or spiritually, however, you want to call it. And even if they're aware of these lies, they still affect them profoundly. People keep yearning for becoming successful by working hard or feel they can't develop their intelligence any further.

It's like seeing faulty reasoning without applying it to yourself.

Anyway, thanks for the insights!
